9/1 Feedback: Specific Tract #3 #54

Closed annacd114 closed 3 years ago

annacd114 commented 4 years ago

6081611900 in East Palo Alto: is SMMI, should be EOG. This census tract holds 1/3 of our population and should be broken up. The Gardens area (south of Pulgas) is under threat of gentrification/is already taking place. Time period does not include when homeowners were disproportionately impacted by the foreclosure crisis. Might want to look into foreclosure records, and title changes from individuals to corporate entities. Median housing prices should be higher (now they're close to a million).

@timathomas This tract couldn't be EOG because it's predominantly mixed/mod-income, which is too high for that type. It also didn't gentrify according to our metrics. But its affordability level and housing cost change did meet criteria for EOG.

This is a MAUP problem where the population is much larger than 10k. Make a community input layer to describing this issue.

Community layer input put in the general text.
